Honors Fellowships

My project involves studying fragmentation patterns of different peptides in the mass spectrometer. It is important because it can aid in improving future identification of proteins using computer programs.

The Honors Fellowship allows me to use the tools and supplies necessary to carry out this research and allows me to stay in the Williamsburg area during the summer to have more time researching.
